Locate Jackson CI Releases

To find someone released from Jackson Correctional Institution, search the Florida Department of Corrections system using the person’s DC number or full name. Jackson CI is the parent state institution for two listed work camps, so a move among the main unit and satellites is not a release from FDC custody. A verified Jackson CI release rests on the statewide release detail, the last out-custody date, and any community-supervision record. County jail feeds and county booking requests do not document this state-prison discharge.

Jackson CI Release Destinations

Jackson Correctional Institution is an adult male FDC prison in Malone. Its official directory lists a capacity of 1,346 and identifies Jackson Work Camp and Graceville Work Camp as satellites. A person can move from the main institution to either camp, return from a camp, or transfer to another FDC institution while the state sentence continues. None of those moves is a community release.

A true Jackson CI release may end prison custody at discharge or begin a period of state community supervision. Use the FDC Inmate Release database and compare the actual Release Date with the final Date Out-Custody. Search the supervised-population database next. If its begin date matches the release, read the recorded supervision type and current status. Traditional parole is limited in Florida, so do not use “parole” as a generic label for all post-prison supervision.

Confirm Jackson CI Release

Start with the six-character DC number. It is more reliable than a facility label because it follows a person through main-unit, satellite, transfer, release, and supervision records. If only a name is known, use FDC’s first and last name fields and leave alias searching selected. Those fields use prefix matching. Open the detail and compare the birth date, photograph, physical description, aliases, offenses, and sentence history before treating the result as a match.

Use these records in sequence:

  1. Search Inmate Population for a current FDC location.
  2. Search Inmate Release with the same DC number for an actual or scheduled release entry.
  3. Compare Release Date, detainers, and the final out-custody date.
  4. Search Supervised Population for a same-day or later supervision interval.
  5. Contact FDC when a field conflicts with a court order or dated agency record.
Jackson CI is not the county jail. The Jackson County correctional facility’s release list and Booking line cannot confirm an FDC prison release.

When the last custodian is uncertain, the Jackson County released inmates hub separates county, state, federal, immigration, and juvenile records. Use the system that held the person at the disputed time.


Jackson CI Release Fields

FDC’s release-only database updates nightly and includes people already released or scheduled for release. That means a result can describe a future projection rather than a completed event. The population detail uses the label “Current Release Date,” while Florida law calls the gain-time calculation a tentative release date. It may be a date, pending review, or still to be set. Awards or forfeitures of gain-time, sentence changes, court action, and detainers can alter it.

A historical release detail can include the DC number, name, photo, description, custody classification, Release Date, aliases, sentence history, detainers, and incarceration history. Read the record chronologically. The page heading, actual Release Date, and matching final out-custody date carry the release evidence. A “Custody” value can describe the classification held in prison, not a live current-custody status.

Population record
The current-prison source for location and projected release information.
Release record
The source for scheduled or completed FDC departures and custody history.
Supervision record
The source for a post-prison community term and its current status.
Detainer
A hold or request from another authority that may affect destination or timing.

If a stated residence appears, treat it as the destination reported at release. It is not a current-address guarantee. A photo can help identity matching, but it may be old and does not prove current location.


Jackson CI Records Contact

The institution contact is useful for unit routing and current operational questions. Formal release-history questions belong with FDC’s release and records offices. Include the full institution name, DC number, date range, and the exact record needed. A request for “all records” can create delay and unnecessary review, while a request for the release detail, incarceration history, or location interval is easier to identify.

FDC’s Bureau of Admission and Release is listed at 850-488-9167 and dc.release@fdc.myflorida.com. Classification and Central Records uses 850-488-9859 for population or detail matters. The FDC public-records channel supplies the formal request path. State that Jackson CI is the main unit when a work-camp name also appears in the history.

Note: Use the institution for routing and FDC’s statewide record offices for the durable public release history.


Jackson CI Satellite Trap

The current FDC directory groups Jackson Work Camp and Graceville Work Camp under Jackson CI. This creates a local search trap. A record may show the parent institution in one place and the satellite name in another. The person has not left FDC merely because one facility name disappears. Check the dated location, DC number, and current population result before deciding what happened.

Graceville Work Camp is also distinct from Graceville Correctional Facility, the contractor-operated Florida prison nearby. Both confine state prisoners, and FDC’s offender network remains the public release source for both. Yet facility-specific calls or records requests must use the right name. A similar address or city does not make them interchangeable.

The Jackson Work Camp release record page explains how an adjacent satellite transfer differs from a state discharge. For the parent institution, record each component as a location interval within the larger FDC custody episode. That produces a clear sequence without inventing separate releases each time the placement changes.


Jackson CI Capacity Context

FDC’s current directory describes Jackson Correctional Institution as an adult male institution with listed capacity 1,346. That number is a facility characteristic, not a current population count and not an annual release measure. It should not be used to estimate how many people left the prison or how quickly a particular release will process.

1,346Listed main-institution capacity
2Named satellite work camps

The parent-satellite structure is more useful for release research than the capacity figure. It explains why older correspondence, a court record, and a current FDC detail may use different location labels. Search by DC number and date rather than assuming that one name must be wrong.

A main-unit transfer to a satellite may reflect classification or placement within FDC. It does not show that the sentence ended. Only the release detail and out-custody history can establish the public state-prison departure.


Jackson CI Supervision Records

When the release detail confirms departure, the next question is whether state supervision began. Search the Supervised Population database with the same DC number. Compare the Supervision Begin Date to the Release Date, then read Current Status, Supervision Type, current office, and Scheduled Termination Date. The end of prison custody and the end of the full correctional term can be separate dates.

“Active” means actively supervised. “Active Suspense” can mean the person is in another jail or facility while the officer monitors status. “Absconder” is a separate status associated with unavailable whereabouts and a warrant. None should be rewritten as discharge. FDC office 141 in Marianna is the local adult supervision office at 2863 Green Street, 850-482-9524. Call only after matching the record, since not every person released from Jackson CI will be assigned there.

Note: A same-day supervision start usually shows a transition, but the exact FDC label should be preserved in any release summary.


Jackson CI Record Conflicts

A projected date can change before release. A court document may establish sentence terms but not show the exact FDC exit. VINE may report an event after FDC updates its own file. When dates differ, identify what each date represents rather than selecting the earliest one. Keep the projection, actual Release Date, Date Out-Custody, and supervision start under separate labels.

For identity conflicts, compare the DC number, birth date, aliases, offenses, and custody history. For a substantive error, identify the precise field and send FDC the supporting order or record. A correction in a court docket does not automatically update FDC, and a facility transfer does not create a county jail record. The most reliable result keeps the source agency and custody type attached to every event.

Detainers can explain a later destination. Read the detainer and cancellation fields alongside the release history. If another authority received the person after Jackson CI, the accurate statement is that FDC prison custody ended on the recorded date. Search the receiving authority before drawing a broader conclusion about current custody.
